Cinema in My Skull ©

There’s a cinema inside my skull,

Projecting storms onto the wall,

Every thought’s a loaded gun,

Every whisper comes undone.

I talk backwards in my sleep,

Count the cracks instead of sheep,

Feel the ceiling breathing slow,

Like it knows what I don’t know.

Pre-Chorus

Brainwaves twisting neon red,

Too alive inside my head,

Everybody says “hold on”,

But the signal’s nearly gone.

Chorus

My mind’s got electric teeth,

Chewing holes in memories,

Every spark becomes

Verse 3

Look, cinema flickering, the reels start to spin again

Mind moving fast, keep on wrestling the imagery

A billion volts through the veins of my entity

Changing my state but I keep the same identity

From the 42nd floor watch the skyline fracture

Living out a film but I can’t change the actors

Paper planes flying through a storm that I mastered

Put it on the map while they’re waiting on disasters

Verse 4

I need a bandage for my sanity

Faded in the shadows of this vanity

You see me climbing while they look for gravity

Turning every struggle into a strategy

Started in the basement, now I’m at the summit

Feel the wind pulling, I won't let us plummet

If life is a movie, then I’m checking the budget

Got the soul of a king and a world to go govern it

Chorus

My mind’s got electric teeth

Chewing holes in memories

Every spark becomes a scream

Nothing’s ever what it seems

I’m balancing on broken wire

Running barefoot through the fire

One more night of staying here

One more war against the fear

Drop

(Hoo!)

(Yeah)

(Turn it up)

(Stay intact)

Outro

Still intact

Yeah, still breathing

Sunlight coming through

Still standing right here

Intact
